Driving on windy, hilly roads in an RWD car is no fun in snow.

Snowed at my house too, and I'm pissed.
I'll be driving in the snow with a RWD car with a performance racing engine.
OH BOY, LOL.

We had a bit of snow last night, dont think it stuck though.
There is a single pile of snow, about 5 ft long, 3 ft across and 1.5 feet deep on a back road by my house. How it got there, I don't know.

oh snap! you both got burrnnneneeeddded
and btw, that map is an acurate projection of latitude, although the scale is a bit askew. (in fact, if I remember my 5th grade geography class, those types of maps are used for sailing the ocean because they are designed around latitude and how far something is north/south, or some bs like that).

Where did you get those coordinates? Because latitude is E/W and longitude is N/S

Latitude, denoted by the Greek letter φ, gives the location of a place on Earth north or south of the Equator.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latitude
Longitude, sometimes denoted λ, describes the location of a place on Earth east or west of a north-south line called the Prime Meridian. Longitude is given as an angular measurement ranging from 0° at the Prime Meridian to +180° eastward and −180° westward. Unlike latitude, which has the equator as a natural starting position, there is no natural starting position for longitude. Therefore, a reference meridian had to be chosen. ...
